A Manteca man allegedly under the influence of drugs drove his 1994 Toyota into the front of a home in the 1700 block of Dalia Lane shortly before noon Monday taking out an upright support near the front door and damaging a second.

The architects of the Spreckels Sugar plant site's rebirth into Manteca's biggest economic engine are being called on to help transform 141.22 acres adjacent to the city's wastewater treatment plant into a family entertainment Mecca.

One of the community events that boost Manteca's population by the thousands during their yearly weekend run is the Manteca Quilters Show. This fabric art extravaganza is also one of the longest-running events by a single organization in the community without missing a single show.
